>>16251065Even though she was a crazy bitch, at least she was interesting character. Everybody else for a lot of SEED are these cardboard cut outs with no personality, so I found Flay actually pretty interesting at the beginning of the show. However, by the time they reach Alaska they really don't know what to do with her. So they kind of just stuff her on the Dominion, which is also sort of interesting, but then she doesn't really do anything on there. I guess they wrote themselves into a corner, since they just get her killed for no particular reason to make Kira really mad, which seemed wasteful when there were plenty of other 'Kira friends' that could have done that fine without wasting one of the characters in the show with more personality than a slice of toast.

>>16251065Honestly, I feel like she is the most interesting character in SEED. She and Kira's interactions were actually the best part of SEED, with her being the cynical embodiment of hatred and anger clashing with his idealistic mindset. She also made Kira a somewhat interesting character himself as we were shown that Kira used her just as much as she used him. Their relationship was the embodiment of an unhealthy coping mechanism.

I really wish that they had made her the FemMC rather than Lacus as she and Kira actually had chemistry and fit the idea of "Understanding". Also her piloting the Strike Rogue would have been great.

>>16251065Yes, i do actually. She's a selfish vapid bitch who only knows how to get what she wants using her pussy. While this does make her one of the most realistically written women in Gundam, it does not make her likeable.

>>16251698As a kid I was upset Tolle died because he was voiced by Inuyasha. When I rewatched the show a few years ago I was just angry that he died without giving me a reason to care, while Nicol was pushed too hard for me not to have seen it coming.

People in this thread are acting like she was super interesting by SEED standards but I really don't feel like that was true. Once she showed her true colors she was fairly one note. Maybe if they planned on having her turn around and start contributing in her own way, but It was clear they didn't really have anything in mind for a complete character arc. By the time she stops being a bitch she just disappears from focus for a while and just shows up again to be a newtype ghost.

>>16253167I dislike all the people saying she's "racist" too. Didn't her initial ideas about Kira get vindicated when he pretends she doesn't exist after her newtype magic asspull? I mean, the coordinators almost destroyed all of Earth's habitability and she was pivotal in saving it, but whatever time for Lacus' pussy.

One of the only characters in Seed that had any sort of character arc. Rau and Athrun were like the only other ones. Shouldn't have died but she got in the way of Fukuda and Morosawa's self insert otp.

>>16253175>I mean, the coordinators almost destroyed all of Earth's habitability.the irony is that Lacus' Father actually has more blood in his hands than Patrick Zala because of what the PLANT Council did.

the side materials were begging for Fllay to bring it up to the whole "PLANT is not the military" argument that Lacus makes.

>>16253486>One of the only characters in Seed that had any sort of character arc.What arc? It's more like a line. She never really gets a conclusion and then she's just a ghost representing Kira's ideal vision of her.

>>16257393That counts as a story arc for SEED. Most of them just have a dot. Hell Kira in SEED has somewhat of a story, then his line ends, then there is a big dot where he magic'd away by Lacus and given the Freedom, the line begins moving again when we find out he is the Perfect Coordinator, and then it just ends again. SEED characters are a mess when you begin viewing them critically. Don't even get me started on other secondary characters like Dearka and Yzak.
